Gulf News Broadcasting (GNB) recently deployed the Flexiva air-cooled FM transmitters from Harris to power two new radio stations – Hayat 95.6 FM, targeted at young Arabs and Bollywood station, Josh 97.8 FM. The new GNB radio stations have been launched in co-operation with UAQ Broadcasting Network.
Harris Flexiva transmitters claim to offer a compact footprint and power-efficient design that minimises space requirements while reducing operational costs. This provides an efficient and reliable transmission platform that delivers a strong, clear signal to audiences throughout the UAE. GNB selected 20kW models to ensure the largest possible coverage area for new and existing listeners while keeping costs low.
The Flexiva design also provides software-defined exciter technology that offers GNB a clear and simple upgrade to digital radio standards if desired.
The low power consumption of the Flexiva design delivers tangible energy savings and, because of its compact size, offers a simplified installation process and easier on-going maintenance,” Digby Taylor, project manager of Gulf News Broadcasting stated.
Said Bacho, vice president sales and service, Middle East and South Asia, Harris Broadcast Communications added: Harris continues to support radio broadcasters and service providers to increase efficiency in their operations by improving their technology investments. Our investment in the development of our transmitter solutions help broadcasters and operators produce, distribute and transmit content more efficiently.
